My wife and I have been here probably a dozen times since it opened. I've always enjoyed the atmosphere and the beauty of the bar. However, the drinks have always been subpar. We've gone back again and again trying their different signature cocktails and sadly I can't think of one that I've wanted to order again. And the fact that they don't do the smoked old fashioned that they serve at their sister bar downstairs is more than a little frustrating. We will go back because the rooftop atmosphere is great, but if you're looking for a truly craft cocktail experience downtown, Golden Girl is a much better option.

Their menu is short, but with amazing options. Each dish is the perfect appetizer size for 2 people and the drinks are phenomenal! We came here kind of late and were able to order food right before the kitchen closed. We started off with 2 drinks: a glass of Sauvignon Blanc for me and an Orange Dream for my husband. We were very hungry so we ordered 2 appetizers. The mezze board comes with fresh flatbread, falafel, hummus, baba ghanoush, and tzatziki. We also ordered chips and dip. The dip was yogurt based with chives. Everything tasted absolutely wonderful and flavorful that our plates were sparkling clean by the time we were done. Their service was fast, the staff friendly and attentive. The rooftop location is great offering both indoor and outdoor seating. Overall an absolutely fantastic experience, definitely a must if you’re in Springfield!

This is a great spot for cocktails and sunsets. I had a group of 9 for a team building event, and I didn't like that the small plates and charcuterie board were brought out without serving ware tongs, spoons, etc. Items that I ordered, but they were out of was still on the bill.

One of the coolest bars I have ever been to! I love the decor and style of the bar as well, very hip & refined - not over the top. The Hugo tea cocktails are amazing!

I rarely leave reviews that aren't positive, but I feel they earned this.
There were 4 of us that met Friday night 8/23/24 at 8pm. We were there for about 1 hour and 40 minutes. It was a first time visit for all of us. My wife and I met another couple, all in our early 60's. I only drink water.
Our wives each had a coke and 2 dragon drinks, my friend had 2 beers and I had 3 glasses of ice water. We also ordered 6 raw oysters, 6 baked oysters, a small Charcuterie tray and smoked fish dip. All of it was tasty and well prepared, but the oysters were all unusually small to us.

The issue came with the absolute lack of service from anyone. We had to order our first round of drinks and the oysters at the bar after 35 minutes without seeing a waiter. It was another 25 minutes before we got our food. I had to go to the bar 2 more times for refills for cokes and water. After a 4th trip to the bar to order round 2 of beer and dragons, a waiter came to our table after he canceled our drink order I had placed at the bar. 15 minutes later we got our drinks, followed by a visit from a short blonde woman stating that she'd had complaints about someone by the fire pit being loud and cussing at the staff. Wasn't us, I explained, as we haven't seen any staff to cuss at. They also gave us someone else's bill which required me going outside the restaurant to find the manager that was by the elevator talking with other employees about weekend plans.

We observed 11 employees, and it appeared the service was equally bad for the approximately 25 guests that were there.

Our total bill was about $145 for everything.

This could be a nice place with better management and an attentive staff.

They sadly earned the 2 star rating.

What a fantastic place for a late night drink! This rooftop bar is incredible and the vibes are impeccable. The drinks are pricing, but they are also some of the best drinks in Springfield and definitely worth it. If you haven't been here before, I highly recommend checking it out. If you like high-end bar experiences, this is the place for you!

Decor is nice but service was very mediocre and my cocktail was like 90 percent vodka. Would be willing to try again but this was strike one.
